X-y Coords Of MenuStrip Item?

Dec 20, 2010

I want to show a ContextMenuStrip beneath a MenuStrip item when that item is clicked. Stuff in the ContextMenuStrip changes dynamically. The ContextMenuStrip is used in a DataGridView. I don't want to duplicate the same items in the MenuStrip.

I can get the mouse coordinates OK, but I don't want that. I want to use the ContextMenuStrip show method referenced to a control. An item in the MenuStrip is not a control, but the entire MenuStrip is a control. If I can get the x-y position of the item in the MenuStrip I can show the ContextMenuStrip in the right place, and it will look just as if it was part of the MenuStrip. how to obtain the location of the MenuStrip item that's active.

Set A MenuStrip Item Calling It By Name?

Jun 14, 2012

When I try to set a MenuStrip Item calling it by name it gives me an exception?

An unhandled exception of type 'System.NullReferenceException' occurred in Sample.exe

Additional information: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Either of the following statements cause errors.

frmMenu.MenuStripfrmMenu.Items(key:="Enter").Enabled = False
frmMenu.MenuStripfrmMenu.Items("Enter").Enabled = False

However when I call Items using an integer it works perfectly.

Textbox In MenuStrip Item

Feb 1, 2012

I have found if you put a text box into a menustrip item everything under that menu no longer show it's properties when clicked and double clicking on the item does not got to the code until you click outside the menustrip. This behavior is only present when the menustrip render mode is system and only when a textbox is in that menu item. Fails with visual studio 2005 and 2010. Am using visual basic. Changing render mode from system to anything else makes everything work, change it back to system and it does not work. This only happens with a textbox in the menu strip item.

How To Check Only One MenuStrip Item At A Time

May 9, 2011

I have a MenuStrip with several items in it. All I am trying to do is select(check) only one item at a time.

Example: Lets say I have a menu title Fruits, and under the menu are several fruits.

Currently, when I click on one fruit there is a check mark, good! The problem is when I click on another fruit there is also a check mark and so on. I only need the menu to check one item at a time, this will unchecked an item if I check another menu item. I tried using if statements but doesn't even come close to working. Any ideas on this?

MenuStrip.Items.Remove - Add Item To Dropdown Menu Upon Creation

Feb 8, 2011

I have my program set up to read the contents of a Directory, and then populate a drop down menu with the names of the files in the directory. (I am using the MenuStrip). Inside my program, it is also set up to create a new file in that directory, and I wish to add this item to the dropdown menu upon creation. The list is entirely created and populated from the code, and the contents of the list depend entirely on what's in the directory.

I have tried using MenuStrip.Items.Remove(menuItem1). Now, when this command gets executed, it does remove the top level Menu, however when I go to repopulate the menu, I end up with duplicates of my files listed in the drop down. I am stuck with how to clear these out as well?

Web Cam XY Coords Of Dot

Jul 22, 2010

I'm working on a project for personal use. I have a web Cam where I took out the lens and replaced it with Blue and Red Cellophane, to filter out light.

The web cam is fed into VB and an infrared (IR) light is shined into the web cam from different positions.

This produces a Black image with a bright white dot moving around.I would like to know if there is a way to get the Dots coordinates (or any other way to measure relative movement from the first dot).[code...]

Would it be viable to take snapshot of webcam's video and search with this engine? (I assume testing is the only way which I am about to try...)

Tile Game: Converting Pixels To X/y Coords

May 5, 2009

So now I'm working on the map editor for my game. The map itself displays 32x32 pixels out from the upper and left bounds of the form. Each tile is also 32x32. So then i have two labels which display the corresponding coordinates divided by 32, this way it would show you x: 7, Y: 8, or whatever. The issue is that the map will be like 15x10, and when moving the mouse to the 15th row/column, it shows 15, but then moving to the 14th row, still shows 15. The rest of it works fine. Here is the code.

Private Sub FrmDesign_MouseMove(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles Me.MouseMove
If e.X < (subZone.Width * 32) + 32 And e.X > ((subZone.Width * 32) -

VS 2008 - Changing Mouse Position Coords Based On Form?

Oct 18, 2011

Basically I want to move my mouse to the coords that is received based on the location of a certain coloured pixel. I can get the coords of the pixel but when using them on mouse position, the mouse position is based on the entire screen rather than the form. How could I change the position coords based on the form rather than the entire screen. E.G. If a certain coloured pixel is 2,2 in a form and I put that as the mouse position, it would go outside the form but I dont want that. I want it to hover of the pixel coords

This is my
Dim bmp As Bitmap = DirectCast(PictureBox1.Image, Bitmap)
For x As Integer = 0 To bmp.Width - 1
For y As Integer = 0 To bmp.Height - 1
If bmp.GetPixel(x, y) = (Color.FromArgb(108, 90, 60)) Then
Windows.Forms.Cursor.Position =
End If
Next

Possible To Make List Box Item Height For Item Depending On Amount Of Lines That Item Contains?

Jan 1, 2012

I have a list box on the form which functions as a copy/paste. When you copy something, it is automatically added to the list box as a "clipboard helper". Here is the problem,however: if the text is more than 1 line, the list box does not show all the text.It ends up looking messy.So getting back to my question, is it possible to make the list box item height for an item depending on the amount of lines that item contains?This is a one line sentence in the list box and should take up one line.This is a multi line sentence in the list box and should take up two lines for item height.

If Eval Compare Item 1 And Item 2 If Item 1 ="0" And Item 2 > "0.00" = Display Result

Jan 21, 2012

Is it possible to compare 2 dataitems and then display the result depending on the 2 values using if eval at run time?I have a ListView with databound controls. 1 is RedemptionChoice and the 2 is CashBack.When 1 reads "0" and 2 reads > 0.00 the output should read AUTO I have read many comments online and most point to create a new function within code behind but have found it impossible to implement on my own.I tried this as a test on the actual page:

<%# If(Eval("CashBackRedemptionChoice").Equals("0") & Eval("[CashBack]").Equals("0.00"), "Auto Cashback"))%>

2 needs to be greater than 0.00 for AUTO to be displayed. Hence I know this would not work. Just trying to give an example of what I would like.
